Tekashi 6ix9ine gets arrested in Florida
Tekashi 6ix9ine found himself in a familiar situation on Wednesday night as he posed for a booking photo following his arrest in Florida. The rapper was apprehended for missing a court appearance and was taken to the Palm Beach County Jail, where he took his mug shot. After posting $2,000 bai, however, he was released. This arrest is related to three traffic citations 6ix9ine received in June when he was pulled over by the police for driving way over the speed limit.
As per the court docs, Tekashi was driving at a speed of 135 mph in an area designated for 65 mph on the Florida Turnpike, resulting in a speeding citation. Additionally, he received tickets for operating an unregistered vehicle and not having his car insurance on hand. In typical Tekashi style, he didn’t attend the court hearing scheduled for July to deal with these charges. Consequently, this led the judge to issue a warrant for his arrest and ultimately resulting in him going to jail on August 9.
